Again very timely – Public Enemy revisit their classic with a new posse of Nas, Black Thought, Rapsody, Jahi, and YG, with Questlove and is that DJ Premiere as well?. A brilliant performance, and also sad because it shows how little has changed since 1989. “Most of My Heroes Still Don’t Appear on No Stamp”
Love the thought provoking Black Panther / Fred Hampton / Hamptons flip from Rapsody best, she killed it, ending with a Breonna Taylor shout too:
You love Black Panther but not Fred Hampton
Word to the Howards and the Aggies and the Hamptons
They book us, won’t book us, I’m Booker
T. Washington, George killed, four-twenty
Think about it (Think), that’s two thousand pennies
The value of black life the cost of goin’ to Wendy’s
Four a four-quarter burger, ended in murder
Fight for Breonna and the pain of her mother, gotta
Also the new generation with Keedron Bryant at the start. Really want a non-censored version though…
